Aeromaster's 
Marauding Mitchells Part 2 Decals 
 
are available online from
Squadron.com 
  
      
      
         
		 
		Aeromaster’s new release of Marauding Mitchells part 2 48-684 is printed 
		to the usual high standard that we come to expect from Aeromaster. The 
		sheet is a great follow on from Marauding Mitchells part 1. The decals 
		are in perfect register and sharply printed. The carrier film is very 
		thin and should disappear under a coating of clear finish. 
		 
		
          
		
        The artwork for the nose art has been well defined with the nose art for 
		the two aircraft being provided as an outline and a template provided on 
		the instruction sheet to mask up and paint the solid base colour. The 
		colour reference sheet provided is excellent giving good colour 
		reference and decal placement. 
		
          
		
        Markings are provided for two aircraft: 
			- 
			
A B-25J-1 of the 498th Bomb Squadron, 
			345th Bomb Group based in the Philippines in 1945. The aircraft is 
			finished in Olive Drab over Neutral Gray with yellow cowling lips 
			and a yellow and green parrots head on the nose.  
			- 
			
Hell’s Belles a B-25D-1 of the 499th 
			Bomb Squadron 345th Bomb Group based in the Port Moresby in November 
			1943. The colours are olive drab over Neutral Gray with with medium 
			green splotching on the upper wing surface. Medium Blue nose art and 
			engine cowl lips.  
		 
		Highly Recommended
